University Study Shows Oregon, Nation Thriving Eugene-Most economic in dicators show that both Ore gon's and the nation's econo mics are in Rood shape, ac cording to a statistical sum mary contained in the current issue of Oregon Business Re view, published monthly by the University of Oregon bu reau of business research. However, some contradic tory signs still remain "which indicate room for doubt about . the future," the article warns. The summary covers the pe riod through June of this year. Although output, income, and other economic measures show new high levels, the re covery of these measures from the low points reached almost a year and a half ago has been "very slow," and most na tional income measures have failed to reach the level ex pected of them by this date, the Review says. Rising Employment Employment in the state and the nation continued to rise in June, although the amount of increase "is not typical of a rapidly expanding economy," according to the article. Forty thousand more people were at work in Ore gon in June than in May, al though this was 5,000 less than in the previous June. This might be caused in part by a cool season which post poned some crop harvests, the Review points out. Lumber production for June in the Douglas fir region was below May of this year by a small amount and "quite substantially below" the pre vious June. Both orders and shipments were up in June over the previous month and year. Unfilled orders . were down slightly, "but so also was the lumber inventory, which is a reflection of in creased orders and ship ments." Ihe article slates. For the first six months of 11162 compared to the samel period in 1961, fir production was almost Ihe same, with orders and shipments this year slightly over 4 per cent higher than last year. Housing Increases Housing starts are Increas ing, the report says, and 'should number more- than 1,300,000 nationwide in 1062, "but this has not provided the stimulus needed to firm up lumber and plywood prices even to the 1960 average lev el." In Oregon, June building; starts were slightly down from a year ago. Retail sales in Oregon have Increased in 1362 over 1961, although, nationwide, these sales declined in June for the second month. Bank debiis in Oregon fell 7.7 per cent in June from the previous month and were .2 per cent below the previous year. Mortgage money rales have declined in most areas of the nation, and this, coupled with higher interest being paid on savings accounts by commer cial banks, has caused many bankers and savings and loan officials "to have some sec ond thoughts" about rates be ing paid to depositors, the Re view observes. "If the situation continues, (here may be a quiet but un mistakable trend to reduce rales paid to depositors." the article predicts.

Marilyn Monroe Frightened; Given to Loneliness, Isolation Editor's note: This is the first of three dispatches on the life and death of Marilyn Monroe, written by UPI Hol lywood correspondent Vernon Scott who was her friend for a dozen years. By VERNON SCOTT Hollywood iL'PD Marilyn Monroe was more terrified of life than death. During the 12 years I knew the girl-woman she was al ways frightened of people, her work, her fancied inade quacies and a dread that she was unloved. Despite her robust curves and reputation as a love god dess, Marilyn was a wraith like, spiritual girl given to loneliness and isolation. No matted where she was, no matter the number of people surrounding her, she was alone and scared. It was the key to her chron- I ic tardiness. She delayed until i the final minute encounters I with other people, socially and professionally. juaruyn was admired, en vied, worshipped. Loved? Marilyn thought not. But she was wrong. Almost everyone who met her discovered some thing about Marilyn to love. Pecu liarly, men who knew her found themselves feeling a protective, gentle affection for the blonde beauty, not at all in keeping with the sensual excitement she was supposed to elicit. Searched for Love But Marilyn sought mean ingful love all her 36 years, not recognizing love when it was lavished upon her. It was a tragic search which ended last Sunday before dawn. The girl whose laughter rang like that of a child's, escaped her longtime fear in death, the only release she Could find in her vain quest for security and a rightful place a place of her own in life. The last time we talked was in her dressing room at 20th Cer.tury-Fox last June 1, her birthday. Dressed in a robe and bare footed, she poured champagne into our glasses and giggled, "I don't feel a minute older than I did yesterday. Age is a stale of mind, so I'm not ever going to get any older. I live for today. Tomorrow never comes and yesterday is ail over. I try never to think about the past." Was on Her Own Born out of wedlock, she was unwanted, unloved. From Ihe time she was a little girl, she was on her own. When she was only 12 days old Marilyn was placed in a boarding home, Ihe first of many. Vaguely Marilyn re called (hat a crazed neighbor attempted to smother her with a pillow when she was two or three years old. Another searing memory went back lo when she was 6 years old and was raped by a man who visited one of her fosler homes. The skinny girl was always an outsider who lacked even a name of her own. Some limes il was Norma Jcane MEDFORD 0W nrn MnflntaW Mortenson (her father's sur- name) and at other intervals : Norma Jean Baker (after her ! mother). i By the time she was eight, her mother, a one time movie I film packer, had suffered a nervous collapse and was made an inmate of a state j hospital.. The mother still is i in a sanitarium. With no one to pay for fos- Study Conducted; futes Whyte's Organization Man Eugene Top executives show a relative lack of con formity to group pressures, according to a study by a University of Oregon profes sor. The study by Dr. John B. Miner, professor of manage ment at the university's school of business administra tion, is in reply to William H. Whyte Jr., author of "The Or ganization Man." Whyte contended that among university professors conformity has won out but that the top level business ex ecutive remains relatively non-conforming. By collecting psychological test data from samples of busi ness exec itives and university profcssois. Miner concluded that Whyte was correct in his analysis of top business execu tives. "In the academic world, on the other hand, he struck out," Miner wrote in an arti cle in the "Administrative Sci ence Quarterly." "An equal reduction in conformity char acterizes university professors in the same age range." Miner said that if the fig ures corrected for age are used, there is even less sup port for Whyte's conclusions. Neither executives nor pro fessors appear to be particu larly conforming or lacking in conformity relative to people of a similar age, he wrote. "There appears lo be both conformists and non-conform- I amono Kiirmssfiil pvnfii. tives and university profes sors. Age rather than specific occupation emerges as a cru cial factor in non-conformity." LEGAL NOTICES .. NOTICE TO CREDITORS So. 114M IN THE CIRCUIT COURT OF TKV.

TICKETS NOW ON SALE-126 EAST MAIN STREET MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD. OREGON ter homes Marilyn was taken ' to an orphanage. Several years ago she re I called, "They had to drag me I by force. I tried to tell them I wasn't an orphan. They ;made me wash 100 plates, 100 cups, and 100 forks, knives and spoons. Finally, when she was 11, a friend of her mother's provid ed a temporary home, but in a period of five years she lived with two different fam ilies. Dream of Stardom Of that period Marilyn said, "I amused myself with flights of fantasy. I dreamed of being a movie star or working on the stage." There were no roots, no identification. There was only a child-like faith that some how she would belong to somebody, somewhere. As she grew into her mid teens Norma Jean's curves at tracted the whistles of neigh borhood boys. In a recent mag azine story Marilyn said, ". . .1 used to go to Grauman's Chi nese theatre and try to fit my foot in the prints in the ce ment there." The early dreams of star dom were lost in her marriage to aircraft worker James Dougherty. It taught 16-year-old Norma that she was un suited for housework. At 20 she was divorced. The early hardships left a chasm separating Marilyn's sunny personality from all who knew her husbands, lovers and friends. At heart she trusted ho one. Full breasts, turned-up nose and wide-set blue eyes were her only attributes on the screen. She gave new mean ing to the word "wiggle." Brunette at first, Marilyn came under the guidance of musician Fred Karger (now Jane Wyman's husband) and agent Johnny Hyde, both of whom were romantically en tangled with the hopeful young actress. Small roles in B pictures failed to encourage Marilyn. A featured part in "Asphalt Jungle" would have passed unnoticed had not the shapely newcomer made head lines by admitting she had posed for the famed nude calendar. "I needed Ihe money,'" she said, launching a legend that was to make her the most exciting glamour girl of her generation. It also led to two more un happy marriages, notoriety, and finally a tragic death. Next: Marilyn becomes a star but fails lo find anything at ihe end of the rainbow but fear and disappointment.
